Russian Propaganda in the 2016 Presidential Election

Through my screencast I analyzed the following piece of propaganda that Russia utilized in attempts to sway the 2016 presidential election.

In my Leap 2, I analyzed the way that Russia used propaganda to create dissension between religion, race, ethnicity, ETC in the 216 Election. The Propaganda image I analyzed targeted religious believers and utilized the image of Satan and Jesus to create a reaction from religious individuals and the way they viewed Hillary in the election.
